Security Features
The MR36H features multiple options for physically securing the access point after installation:
1. Security screw – The accessory kit includes screws that can be used to secure the access point to the mount
cradle. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental dislodging and theft.
Ethernet Ports
Uplink
The MR36H features a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port that accepts 802.3at and 802.3af power on the rear of the
unit. This port should be used for uplink to your WAN connection.

LAN Access Ports
The MR36H features 3x LAN ports labeled 1 through 3. Port 1 may provide 802.3af out to an end device if the
MR36H is powered via a 802.3at power source. Conguration details can be found in the AP port proles
article.
The LAN ports on an MR36H behave like access ports on a switch, and will not accept incoming trafc if it has a
VLAN (802.1q) tag applied.
Connecting another MR to the LAN ports of the MR36H is not a supported topology.
Through MR-4072 we learnt that if another MR is connected to the LAN port of an MR36H, DHCP requests
from that MR will not be forwarded from the LAN ports, this is designed as such to prevent erroneous mesh
topologies from forming.

Power Source Options
The MR36H access point can be powered via PoE using either the Meraki PoE Injector (sold separately), or a
PoE switch.
The MR36H will function in low power mode when powered by a 802.3af power source. While in low power
mode, the MR36H will disable 802.3af out on the LAN1 port. Despite being in low power mode, the device can
still supply full wireless capabilities.
Factory Reset Button
If the button is pressed and held for at least five seconds and then released, the MR36H will reboot and be
restored to its original factory settings by deleting all conguration information stored on the unit.
The factory reset button is located on the rear of the unit and must be ejected from the mount plate in order to
be activated.

System Status
The MR36H is equipped with a multi-color LED light on the front of the unit on the top right to convey
information about system functionality and performance. The LED shines through the faceplate of the AP and is
not visible when either disabled via Run Dark mode or powered off.

Orange - AP is booting (permanent Orange suggests hardware issue)
Blinking Orange - AP can't nd uplink
Rainbow - AP is initializing/scanning
Blue - AP in Gateway mode with clients
Blinking Blue - AP is upgrading
Green - AP in Gateway mode with no clients
Ethernet Status
The MR36H features four green Ethernet status LEDs near the bottom of the faceplate. When an Ethernet
client is connected, the LED will shine through the faceplate if Run Dark mode is not enabled.
Run Dark Mode
The MR36H may be operated in “Run Dark” mode for additional security and to reduce the visibility of the
access point. In this mode, the LED will not be illuminated. This mode may be congured through the Meraki
dashboard.
When a MR36H is rebooted with rundark mode enabled, an orange LED will illuminate during boot then all
lights will be turned off after boot.
Safety and Warnings
These operations are to be taken with respect to all local laws. Please take the following into consideration for
safe operation:
Power off the unit before you begin. Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the
power source.
Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar
with standard practices for preventing accidents.
Read the wall-mounting instructions carefully before beginning installation. Failure to use the correct
hardware or to follow the correct procedures could result in a hazardous situation to people and damage to
the system.
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the
protective device is rated not greater than: 15 A, 125 Vac, or 10A, 240 Vac.
Please only power the device with the provided power cables or standard PoE to ensure regulatory
compliance.

You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform an installation.
Configure Your Network in Dashboard
The following is a brief overview only of the steps required to add an MR36H to your network. For detailed
instructions about creating, configuring and managing Meraki wireless networks, refer to the online
documentation (documentation.meraki.com).
1. Login to http://dashboard.meraki.com. If this is your first time, create a new account.
2. Find the network to which you plan to add your APs or create a new network.
3. Add your APs to your network. You will need your Meraki order number (found on your invoice) or the serial
number of each AP, which looks like Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx, and is found on the bottom of the unit. You will also
need your Enterprise license key, which you should have received via email.
4. Go to the map / floor plan view and place each AP on the map by clicking and dragging it to the location
where you plan to mount it.
Check and Set Firmware
To ensure your MR36H performs optimally immediately following installation, it is recommended that you
facilitate a firmware upgrade prior to mounting your MR36H.
1. Attach your MR36H to power and a wired Internet connection. See the "Power the MR36H" section for
details.
2. The MR36H will turn on and the LED will glow solid orange. If the unit does not require a firmware upgrade,
the LED will turn either green (no clients associated) or blue (clients associated) within thirty seconds.
* If the unit requires an upgrade, the LED will begin blinking orange until the upgrade is complete, at which point
the LED will turn solid green or blue. You should allow at least a few minutes for the firmware upgrade to
complete, depending on the speed of your internet connection.
Check and Configure Upstream Firewall Settings
If a firewall is in place, it must allow outgoing connections on particular ports to particular IP addresses. Check
the Meraki Dashboard under the help section for Firewall information.
Assigning an IP Address to the MR36H
All gateway MR36Hs (MR36Hs with Ethernet connections to the LAN) must be assigned routable IP addresses.
These IP addresses can be dynamically assigned via DHCP or statically assigned.
Dynamic Assignment
When using DHCP, the DHCP server should be configured to assign a static IP address for each MAC address
belonging to a Meraki AP. Other features of the wireless network, such as 802.1X authentication, may rely on
the property that the APs have static IP addresses.
Static Assignment

10/21
Static Assignment
Static IPs are assigned using the local web server on each AP. The following procedure describes how to set the
static IP:
1. Using a client machine (e.g., a laptop), connect to the AP wirelessly (by associating to any SSID broadcast by
the AP) or over a wired connection.
2. If using a wired connection, connect the client machine to the MR36H either through a PoE switch or a PoE
Injector. If using a PoE switch, plug an Ethernet cable into the MR36H’s Ethernet jack, and the other end into
a PoE switch. Then connect the client machine over Ethernet cable to the PoE switch. If using a PoE Injector,
connect the MR36H to the “PoE” port of the Injector, and the client machine to the “LAN” port.
3. Using a web browser on the client machine, access the AP’s built-in web server by browsing to
http://my.meraki.com. Alternatively, browse to http://10.128.128.128.
4. Click on the “Uplink Configuration” tab. Log in. The default login is the serial number (e.g. Qxxx-xxxx-xxxx),
with no password (e.g., Q2DD-551C-ZYW3).
5. Configure the static IP address, net mask, gateway IP address and DNS servers that this AP will use on its
wired connection.
6. If necessary, reconnect the AP to the LAN.
Static IP via DHCP Reservations
Instead of associating to each Meraki AP individually to configure static IP addresses, an administrator can
assign static IP addresses on the upstream DHCP server. Through “DHCP reservations,” IP addresses are
“reserved” for the MAC addresses of the Meraki APs. Please consult the documentation for the DHCP server to
configure DHCP reservations.
